What is the cow level and how do I get there?

Question

I've heard that after all of the rumors surrounding a "cow level" in the original diablo (which never actually existed), an actual cow level was put into Diablo 2.

What exactly do I have to do to reach this cow level? When I get there, what will I find?

Answer

It's a secret level filled with mooing cows on par with end-game enemy difficulty. They drop unique, set, and magic items, and their King drops a rare item. It's more of a fun Easter egg than something to take advantage of.

1. Get Wirt's Leg on Wirt's corpse in the north while rescuing Cain from Tristam.

2. Finish the game, and return to Act 1 on the same difficulty.

3. In the Rogue Encampment, combine Wirt's Leg and a Town Portal Tome in the Horadric Cube.

4. Enter the red portal to Moo Moo Farm. If you want to return on the same difficulty in the future, don't kill the Cow King.
